i need help with numbers 52 through 57. if you can only do one problem thats fine. i just need to know how to do at least one problem because i don't understand how to figure out these problems.
Special right triangles: 30-60-90 right triangles and 45-45-90 right triangles.
Hope this helps! :D

Thanks, rarinstraw......here are the "numbers" for 52
x is the shortest side opposite the 30 degree angle = 7
y ....across from the 60 degree angle will be √3 times as long as this = 7√3
z ...across from the 90 degree angle will be twice as long as x = 2*7 = 14
(53)
x will be 1/√3 as long as y = 14/√3 ....z will be twice as long as x = 28/√3
54 is similar
For 55......since the angles opposite p and q are equal, then p and q are also equal
So q = 1 and the other side, r, in a 45-45-90 triangle will always be √2 times as long as the equal sides....so r =1 *√2 =√2
56 should be easy
57 - the unknown sides are 1/√2 as long as r ..... so they equal 16 * 1/√2 = 16/ √2
